Apple Remote Desktop copy text, copy files support
0 vote
Hi,
I've been testing the Apple Remote Desktop feature in ARD on an iMac. I couldn't get copy/paste to work, nor copying/pasting files either way.
While Andre on twitter said that copying files is not yet supported and I should open feature request, he also mentioned that copy/pasting should work just fine.
With regards,
Przemek

Hello,
Thank you for contacting us on that matter!
Which version of RDM and what type of Data Source you are currently using? Do you experience the same issue if you launch an ARD connection outside of RDM?
Best regards,

I am using 2022.3.31. I don't have a way to test outside of RDM. I am using an XML data source.
PS. I fixed the initial post; not sure what happened when I was posting.
Hello,
Would it be possible for you to go into the properties of your ARD entry, under the "Settings" section, and make sure that the "Enable clipboard transfer" option is checked?

I'm sorry. It works. Just my dumb ass didn't think on using Windows+C, Windows+V instead Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V. Is there a way to remap this on remote desktop rather than on mac itself?
Hello,
Thank you for your swift reply!
I am glad to see that it works for you. As for your question, this should be possible by going under the "Advanced" tab of your ARD entry and setting the Keyboard to "On the remote computer".
